Why is it silly? The train of thought seems to be regular students who don't perform... well tough, but athletes need to be coddled. As long as these athletes also realize what it is they're signing up for, like you mentioned, I don't see the issue. If they don't realize the risks, then that...

Why is it any different? If a kid from a lower income area goes to Tech on an academic scholarship, then performs poorly academically, should they keep it purely because of their origins? There are literally tens of thousands of kids across the country who are putting themselves into indentured...

People like you are why the phrase "Lies, damned lies, and statistics" exists. Other teams RUTS on patsies, but other teams don't RUTS on patsies to the extent that we do, which means are averages are more inflated against cupcakes than other teams' are.

"Before I respond to your latest post, I wanted to make sure that you see I wasn't making something up when I said that you claimed we're not an efficient offense" And I already admitted I worded it poorly. " Team 1 would have the better PPD. That's how the statistic is calculated...

Fine, assume same number of drives for both games. Let's say 10 drives per game. So 20 total drives. Team 1: 70 points vs Elon and 10 points vs VT. (20 drives) Team 2: 40 points vs Elon and 28 points vs VT. (20 drives) Which team is more efficient using your metric? I have not claimed...

Answer the question AE87, which is more efficient. 70 points vs Elon and 10 points vs VT or 40 points vs Elon and 28 points vs VT assuming the same defensive output?

AE87, here's a quick sanity test to you. What's more efficient? Scores of 50 and 30 against Elon and VT respectively, or scores of 70 and 10 against them respectively? Assuming similar defensive output from us. I don't see much difference between 50 and 70, but see a helluva difference between...

Fine dude, if you're going to be nitpicking my wording like that, I ammend my original post to "Your argument shows several flaws and shortcomings due to (reasons I have listed above). I therefore do not think there is sufficient evidence to accept your hypoethesis that are offensive is highly...

"As I said, the assumption is that the spectrum of defensive strength of all your opponents is roughly comparable to the spectrum of defensive strength of the opponents of the team to which you are comparing your offense or defense. I supported that assumption by comparing raw ppd to the more...

We're not an efficient offense because the vast majority of our points are scored against a select few opponents (who also happen to be bad). What you are doing is taking the 50+ points we scored against Syracuse and Elon, and applying them against Virginia Tech and BYU drives. You can not do...

Are they doing any 7 on 7 scrimmages with other schools like Georgia State?
